<div>yes because hackers can do anything.</div>
<div>they can feed you a fake webpage and access your whole network.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>there's no such thing as perfect security.</div>
<div>if that what you want you better stay offline.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>any reasonable firewall can protect your system.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>setup properly even if they break out of simh they are locked in a chroot jail.</div>
<div>and firewall on the device prevents them from getting anywhere.</div>
<div>with chroot you can take away their access to any standard utilities like telnet or ssh or anything too.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>this is dirt simple and millions of people do it every day.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>by again if you're that worried you better disconnect now.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>uh oh look out 127.0.0.1 is attacking you...</div>

<div dir="auto">I had the HP2100? Simulated on a Beaglebone Black for the Vintage Computer Festival a few years ago. I had an TI Silent 700 teletype connected to it. In a way it’s kind of a shame that a $35 (or $5 for a RPi Zero) is more powerful than the mainframes
of old. Actually I have a couple of the Pi Zero W’s around somewhere. Computers used to be equipment to diagnose and repair down to the component and electrical trace level. Now it’s literally throw away technology. </div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">But even with an RPi running simh, it still needs to be on my home network, which is one of the things I’d like to avoid for the “Production Server” for lack of a better term. </div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">As for not opening it up, I’m sure there’ll be someone who can figure out how crash out of simh and keep/get a shell running, and now they’re sitting on a machine inside my network with full access to my network. And going through setting up
a separate vlan or even having it go through a second router so it’s on it’s on it’s own network is more work than I’d rather do. </div>

<div dir="auto">Dan, it is easy peasy, but not quite free, as if you want 24/7 access to the box, you have to keep the system running 24-7, so electricity costs. Plus, I’m planning on having others log in as well, thus I don’t want to open up my network like
that. That’s why I’m looking for a free hosted/Cloud solution. That way someone else can deal with the rest of the network security. I do enough of that for work anyway, don’t want to have to monitor my home network as thoroughly. </div>

<div dir="auto">Well, running from inside a house and making accessible from the outside is easy. But most ot my computers at home generally don’t run 24/7. </div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Mainly what’s needed for what we both want to be able to do isn’t really a shell account on a shared machine, but literally a dedicated VM instance, but we need to be able to access that instance through a public IP address.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">On a home network, a private IP Address (192.168.x.x, 172.x.x.x ‘actually I don’t think it’s the whole 172 network’, or a 10.x.x.x) it’s easy enough to setup port forwarding to make it accessible. But on the Cloud based VM’s, I don’t know if
there is a way to do it. Well, I know there ARE ways, usually involves paying for the instance, an external address, and possibly the amount of traffic. </div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Actually, I know Bluehost (is it still a thing?) used to give you a VM with public address in combination with their hosting/domain name service. But I’m hoping to find one that will not cost me anything. </div>
